    Gayle, Love, love, love your videos and your cheerfully delivered explanations. You mentioned that there would be a million suggestions so another will not be a surprise. Here goes…Apply a coating of mod podge to the backside of your strips and allow to dry before weaving. You can still apply dabs of glue to hold your strips together as you weave. When the weave is complete, iron the piece (protect your iron and ironing board with deli paper) and voila….you can cut apart into tags and no further gluing in needed. Thank you for letting me but in. Your fan, Donna.

      Oh my gosh Donna that is brilliant. I did this and made journal cards with the same issue of them staying together. I’m absolutely going to try this! Thanks for the tip. And as always Gayle, great video. ❤️

    You know Gayle this morning I woke up terribly depressed. I’m so sick of winter and cold and pain then I saw your video and I thought why not. So l turned it on and started watching and it wasn’t long and you had me laughing with you. You can be hilarious. It’s very infectious. Buy the time you were finished I felt much better. Thank you so much for your humor and joy. I’m grateful for it. Judy O in Oklahoma.💝😂😂😂😂

    Lovely tags made from your weaving sheet! I do a bit of a different thing when I do mine. I also usually use a 12x12 paper as the backing and I do glue the top edge as you do, weave the same as you, then glue the outer 3 remaining edges like you , now is the different part. This way may not be faster to all, but I don't do it for a time saver, but it does secure it better and gives added texture, I take it to my sewing machine and run stitches over all the strips, sometimes I mix up the stitching other times I only do straight stitching, sometimes I do like a random crazy type line (circles, spirals, boxes etc) all over and other times I just sew a line down the center of the strips. You can cut these apart now without worrying the center is going to shift and you can still glue the random loose edges on the tags where/if needed. If I had an embroidery machine still I would even add a few flowers or butterfies mixed in with the stitching!
    I have also used iron on fusible to put on the back of the 12x12 before you start weaving. Weave your strips on top of the fusible side. After the weaving is done just cover the woven paper with a pressing cloth or parchment paper then iron it down, works great no or little gluing needed. This technique also allows you to weave in some of those shorter 1/2 inch lace pieces for another type look! Just other ideas for you to try or not.
    *hugs & prayers* thanks for the daily smiles and inspiration Gayle it is much appreciated! Much love winging its way from Alabama to Montana!

    What an amazing project! At first when I saw this video, I thought… nah, I won’t watch this one… it’s not me. But then I decided to watch it and you brought me out of a several day funk that I have been in due to health issues. Thanks for making me smile and believe that I too could attempt such a project. Life often sucks when struggling with health stuff… but it is always nice to watch your videos and hear your banter about your life and crafting… thank you… Lynda from Alberta, Canada!!!

    I recently showed my friend the paper weaving video because I made so many from your earlier videos and know to save branding strips. She had to make one (12×12) right away. She used her strips, combined them with mine and created a beautiful weave. Some corners were more yellow with blue, others green, browns and tans. She's loved paperctafting because of your video inspirations.

    @kathmcmillen3217 2 года назад

    Glad you revisited this idea! I made a 6x6 weaved paper the 1st time you showed this idea and loved it. Time to make more Gayle tags! The current way of the world just breaks my heart for all those people in the Ukraine. Also feel so bad for the people in Russia who are opposed to what is happening. I have a ton of videos to catch up on! Haven't been able to get any Gayle time this past week. I hate feeling ill. Hugs....

    Loved the paper weaving! It looks lovely if you tear strips or alternate width of strips. I have an old paper shredder that shreds in strips. I used that with my middle school students to make miniature weavings on index cards with magazines. Tedious but it was great for eye-hand coordination

    Fast forward over ANY part of a Gayle Agostinelli video?! I think not! 😂 😂 😂 I might miss a funny story, miss learning a new word or something. No ma'am. I work on cross stich, paper craft or turn up the volume and run to the potty but never fast forward 😂 😁❤️ hope you are doing well and thank you so much for the movie suggestion and your cheery kindness. I've never personally met you but have much love and respect for you.

  • @thecrafteaneighbor5177
    @thecrafteaneighbor5177 2 года назад

    Hey Gayle! I actually sat down and did this with you today. It was fun! I didn't have enough scrap strips like you did, but just cut up paper into 1/2 inch strips, size based on scrap strips I already have. I used 4 different papers that had Spring colors and glued each row down as I went along. It sure turned out really pretty. So much so I don't want to make cards until I scan the entire woven paper so I can use it again and again. And then I'll cut out the cards.
    We had a snow storm today. About 10 inches fell and is blowing all over the place. Looks like Puxatawney, PA groundhog called things right this year with a long winter. Though, it was in the 50s a few days ago.
    Well, my friend, I hope you're day is going well. Hugs! God bless! Sue ❤

    Hi Gayle. You may never see this comment since this video is a year old. I’m catching up on older videos since I’m out of commission. What fun! I want to try to do this! You mention in this video that you’re grateful for Tim Holtz coming up with new things all of the time. I feel the same way about you. Thank you for the wealth of ideas that you provide. 💜

  • @lindaa1540
    @lindaa1540 2 года назад

    What fun! I would scan the whole piece before cutting it up after spending so much time creating it! My scanner couldn't handle a 12 by 12 but doing it in sections would give fodder for some more fun tags later on when printed on cardstock. I'm also seeing myself printing the images on copy paper to use as journal pages, patchwork pockets and belly bands. Thanks for the ideas!

    The 12x12 woven piece is gorgeous, as are the individual tags. Bless you for your seemingly infinite patience. I, on the other hand and if I did weave such a creation, would ModPodge the top/weave to keep it all in place. Thank you for taking the time to put this beauty together and sharing the process. Cheers, Ardith

    One of the things I appreciate about you is your honesty!! It's so nice you never learned to lie! That is one less thing you have to remember--and leaves more room in your brain for crafting!!

    I've done this with gelli prints and my own multimedia art and been very happy with the results. Also striking when you use black and white multimedia design. When cut up and then randomly put back back together, it looks awesome. Only negative is it adds time because you have to cut your own strips.

    I’ve been waiting for this type of video. Now I understand how beautiful paper weaving can be, however tedious. I absolutely cherish your creativity and love for paper crafting.
    We have a fur baby that loves laying in the sun, problem is she lays belly exposed and because she has little fur she sunburns if we don’t get her out of the sun especially in the Spring and Summer months. That’s so neat that Alfie is a sun dog some breeds aren’t.
    Thank you for all you do and for all you teach us.

    This is one of my favorite way that you could use up these strips. I like these as well as you Cathedral stained glass tickets and pockets. So pretty. I made some Cathedral stained glass pockets and tags with a dark forest green background for an Ireland 🇮🇪 journal for my niece. I think she will love them when I get it finished and to her. Thank you for all you share and give so freely of your time and talents. We are so blessed to have you in our crafting worlds. Have a lovely week. Thanks again. From cold very dry Utah. Hope some winter snow and rain come down our way. Even if it gets to be spring before it is here we sure could use some rain and snow.
